Private Dining · 20 guests
Russ was very helpful in getting everything arranged for the private dinner I was catering - inviting for site viewings, answering questions, preparing the space on the night and being available during the event to help with any queries. Some more kitchen equipment (another induction hob, additional pots and pans etc.) could be helpful, and I am told that is on its way. My diners enjoyed the space and having it all for themselves, and were allowed to put up decorations as they wished and re-arrange the space to suit their needs. Overall, a good experience - I'd be happy to run another event here.

40th Birthday Party · 25 guests
I loved the downstairs lounge I hired for my 40th birthday party cause it was quirky and spacious, I loved the style! Also, the food I ordered was amazing and so the cocktails! My friends had a great time. On another note, we could play music we love which made my birthday perfect! Thanks so much for this experience, I would repeat it!
I would have loved to stay for longer, at least until midnight, but I understand this has to do with current restrictions

This was a lovely venue and well suited to our needs. It's easy to get to from Balham station and the second room downstairs is cosy and atmospheric which supported our wellbeing event.
One of the staff wouldn't give us access to drinking water and said we had to pay for bottled water. However we asked a different, very helpful, person who happily brought us a large pitcher of water.
